Recipe – Cauliflower Curry with Homemade Flatbreads

I’m feeling rather autumnal today. I’m not sure if it’s that back-to-school feeling that has seen me buying a mountain of new stationary (little bit in love with new pens and notebooks!) or yet another day of rain that just makes me want to crawl back into bed with my Kindle for company!

This weather has made me start yearning for some comfort food; stews, slow-cooked joints of meat and hot puddings. Case in point, this lovely rhubarb and blackberry crumble I made last night…warm, fruity and comforting.

I also love that the variety of blackberries I used were called ‘Loch Ness’!

However, I refuse to bid farewell to summer just yet and put my bikinis and maxi dresses away for another year and I am keeping everything crossed for a scorcher this weekend so I can accessorise my bridesmaid dress with sunglasses instead of an umbrella!

Today’s recipe is a bit of a two-in-one; a lovely veggie curry and some flatbreads to go with it, which make a nice alternative to rice and are so cheap and quick to make I will be making them a lot and experimenting with different flavours.

Flatbreads: the below ingredients are enough for 4 flatbreads

Ingredients

125g of plain flour

A pinch of salt

A teaspoon of olive oil

75ml of warm water

How to make it

In a large mixing bowl, sift the flour and salt

Add the oil and water and worj the contents of the bowl into a rough dough with your hands

On a floured work surface, knead the dough for 3-5 minutes until you have a smooth and elastic dough

Cover the dough in a bowl and allow the dough to rest for about 20 minutes

Divide the dough into four equal-sized balls

Roll them out until the dough is about half a centimetre thick

In a non-stick frying pan on a high heat, add a little oil and place a flatbread in the pan

My name is Hannah. I live near Bath in a lovely village in the Cotswolds with my husband Ian, the love of my life for the past 10 years, in our dream cottage. I have landed my dream job as a primary school teacher and I can’t think of anything else I would rather be doing. I am a self-confessed foodie and I love to cook, bake, and eat out as much as possible.
Here are some things I love:
My friends and family, travelling, fresh flowers, good books, having breakfast on my balcony, horror films, Christmas, tea, Las Vegas, lie-ins, red wine, Liverpool FC, music, sausage dogs, Spain, rare steak, fashion, cheese, American TV series and camping.
And here are my pet hates:
People dressed as animals, whistling, being rushed, being made to wait, girls who act stupid to impress a man, spiders, sunburn and rocket (it comes with EVERYTHING!)
